Around the world, Хокон (Håkon , Hakon , Hokon ) is quite a rare primarily masculine, but scarcely feminine first name. The forename Хокон is habitual in Northern Europe, particularly Norway, where it is quite a common male name, Iceland, and Denmark, where it is a rare male name. Measured by absolute frequency, it most frequently occurs in Norway, Nigeria, and Germany. Much less frequently, Хокон is the last name as well as the forename.
Хокон is also a name for the fictitious and mythical characters: Håkon and Kristin , the Mascots of the 1994 Winter Olympics; Håkon Werle , the theatrical character in the play "The Wild Duck" and Håkon VII of Norway , the Håkon VII of Norway as depicted in television series Atlantic Crossing.
